Enpuku-ji is a [[Jishu|Jishû sect]] Buddhist temple located near [[Atsuta Shrine]] in [[Nagoya]]. Founded in [[1319]] by Gon'a, a relative of the [[Ashikaga clan]], it was used by Shogun [[Ashikaga Takauji]] for worship, and long maintained a connection with that clan.
Shogun [[Ashikaga Yoshinori]] famously held a three-day ''[[renga]]'' poetry gathering at Enpuku-ji in [[1432]] while on a journey to [[Mt. Fuji]].
During the [[Edo period]], lords of [[Nagoya han]] beginning with [[Tokugawa Mitsutomo]] held theatre performances at Enpuku-ji, leading the temple to become famous as a performance space under the name Kamei Dojo.
